Guilds The Guild Expansion: Alliances [+65 Supporters] V1.4 Released: Added Territory Trading, Achievements

Hi everyone, Alexicon1 here. I am here to talk about a possible addition to the Guilds system, arriving in the form of Alliances. For those that don't know, the alliances would pretty much be a guild of guilds that team up to do stuff together. So, without further ado, let's get to it.

Alliances
Alliances would be groups of guilds, that could attack and defend like any other guild. Alliances would have a limit of 5, as Alliances would have levels, but not receive an updated guild cap. The leveling would be used for unlocking new mobs to defend with, also as a status symbol. Only Chiefs and Owners in the guilds that part of an alliance, can initiate commands, such as attacking, defending and the like. Territories held by an alliance would split the XP and rewards between the guilds, encouraging teamwork. They would have their own money pool separate from the individual' guilds. Alliances could be created by going to the Alliance Master, beyond the Guild Master area.

Alliance Commands
These are some of the commands that the Chiefs and Owners of the guilds in an alliance can use, although
there are a few that can be used by others in the alliance. First up.
/a This is very simple, as well as a guild chat (/g), this is an alliance chat, therefore it is possible to talk to all members of the alliance. This command can be used by all players.

/alliance attack This is to attack territories, all members of the alliance standing in the territory when the timer ends are teleported to a war server. To compensate, I suggest the mob cap in a territory be raised to around 1250-1300. Only Chiefs and Owners can initiate alliance battles.

/alliance defend Once again, this is self-explanatory, Owners and Chiefs can defend the alliance territories, from a separate alliance money pool. Once a certain level is reached, Alliances will unlock new mobs to defend territories with, but it will be harder than guilds to level. Can only be used by Owners and Chiefs.

/alliance contribute Pretty simple, any player in an alliance can contribute an amount to the alliance that they see fit. Any player can use this.

/alliance turnover This is a new one. If a Chief or Owner is standing in their guild-owned territory, they can turn it over to the alliance, instantly sharing the remaining up among the alliance. All mobs defending are instantly transferred, without loss to the now alliance-owned territory

/alliance list Lists all guilds in alliance

/alliance log Same as a guild log. Shows all activities undergone by an alliance

/alliance xp [amt] Will contribute a percentage of the xp already being contributed to your guild. E.g. Say I am contributing 50% xp to my guild. Then if I /alliance xp 15 ,it will take 15% of that 50% xp and contribute it to the alliance

/alliance invite Invites a guild to the alliance. Can only be done by Owner that created the alliance.

/alliance kick Kicks a guild from the alliance. Can only be done by Owner that created the alliance.

/alliance reclaim The opposite of /alliance turnover, if the player that turned over the territory to the alliance stands in that territory once more, and it hasn't been attacked, the player can reclaim the territory for his guild.

/alliance contribute Same as the /guild contribute command, contributes a set amount of emeralds to the guild. Can be done by all players

/alliance transfer Transfers a certain amount of emeralds from the guild bank, to the alliance bank. Can only be done by Owners and Chiefs

/alliance leave The guild immediately leaves the alliance. 1/5 of money donated to the alliance by that guild is immediately returned to their guild bank. To prevent spending all of your money, then leaving with nothing. Can only be done by Owner



Alliance Master
This is an NPC that does exactly the same that a guild master does, but obviously, for alliances. It will cost 5 LE once more. A window will come up where you can enter the alliances full name, then initials. E.g. The new alliance Legio Praetoria. Its initials would most likely be LGP. Which would be displayed when the alliance has taken the territory and the like. Now, for the Dialogue.
[1/5] Oh, you wish to forge an alliance, do you.
[2/5] I can help you with that, but it will cost you
[3/5] How much? Let's say, 5 LE. Yes, bring me 5LE and will craft an alliance that will go down in history
[4/5] Thank you very much. So what would you like to name your Alliance
Player then enters the alliance name, and tag. Also is granted the rank of Warchief, (*****) which is like Alliance Owner, the owners of the other guilds are still owners, and so forth.
[5/5] Farewell, I wish you luck in the fields of war.
In-Game Dialogue
Upon taking a territory: Congratulations! Your alliance has taken control of [_______] from [_____]. Your guild and alliance will receive a portion of all XP and Loot dropped by all creature slain in that territory

Upon defending a territory: The alliance has successfully defended [______]. [_Guild_] has lost

Upon purchasing mobs: Alexicon1 [TNA] has purchased 1000 mobs for City of Troms, costing [A] 7720 emeralds.

Upon contributing emeralds: Alexicon1 [TNA] has contributed 4096 emeralds to the alliance.

Territory Bar
An example of the bar at the top of the screen, modified to show alliances


Ranks
Commander/Warchief (*****): Creator of Alliance, has the power to dissolve the Alliance
General(****): Owners of participating guilds, also one chief from Commander's guild
Chief (***): Chiefs of participating guilds.
Captains(**): Captains of participating guilds
Recruiters(*): Recruiters of participating guilds
Recruits: Recruits of participating guilds

Territory Trading

This is a function that allows guilds and alliances to exchange territories, for either emeralds or other territories. Only Chiefs, Generals and the Warchief can do this. If a member of another guild wants to territory trade with you, you will receive this message Alexicon1 [TNA] would like to trade territories with you. Type /alliance trade Alexicon1 to continue.Above is the menu for trading territories, as you can see it is much like the trading menu. You can also go to your inventory to grab emeralds to pay for the trading, if you want to. This would change collecting territories forever. Enjoy

Definately, but who can accept an alliance invite?

 

A very good idea. +1 Supporter

 

+1, this sounds like an awesome idea!

 

Um, the owner of the guild being invited

 

oh that wasnt clear. EVERYONE LEAVES LITTLE HOLES IN THEIR IDEAS FOR ME TO CRITICIZE I LOVE IT

 

Thoughts on thread:
-Like Legio Praetoria wasn't unbeatable enough to begin with
-Probably not gonna be used by any other alliance(if there even is others)
-Good idea

 

I suggest that you will make an option to make the 5 guild owners have the same status and title, (Have the five leaders be teleported to a room and each will have to pay an le [this will be nice for alliances of equal guilds]) and make an option to make one guild an official subguild of the other.

 

AWESOME! THIS IS BETTER THAN POTATOES!!!
Seriously though, this is awesome!! Great job!

 

The only thing that bothers me with guilds/alliances is that they are only a social feature atm and don't offer any in game advantage at all.

 

Good idea (+1 support)

 

Bump seeing as more alliances are appearing

 

I think that the guild allowed per said alliance should be raised- just an opinion. You shall still receive a (+1).

 

Where did the 65 supporters come from?

 

Rip wynncraft. Guilds became OP and everyone died.

 

Only 5 guilds per alliance a dangit
Ordo Malleus has over 10... in it

 

to add onto this "Guild Expansion" suggestion, ill simply add a spark to the flame of creation...

Guild Battles

meaning players fight it out in #v# but not for territory since thats stupid

 

Supported my friend

 

Before the 9/7 (The Wipe)
